Bush Hits New Lows in AP Ipsos Poll

Bush hitting a new low has become a frequent story this year. The AP Ipsos Poll shows his approval at another new low in their poll at 36%. Bush has even lost his support on national security, with 40% approving of his handling of national security and the “war on terror.” Only 35% approve of his handling of Iraq. A growing majority favors Democrats over Republicans by 49% to 33% when asked which party should control Congress.

The Republicans are continuing their spin that the Democrats have no plan, but are showing signs of realizing this argument is not working for them:

“These numbers are scary. We’ve lost every advantage we’ve ever had,” GOP pollster Tony Fabrizio said. “The good news is Democrats don’t have much of a plan. The bad news is they may not need one.”

The Republican record has become so bad that, even if anyone believes the claim that Democrats have no plan, it is hard for most to believe that a change in control of the government would not be an improvement.
